Form K-37, titled "Kansas Disabled Access Credit," allows individual and business taxpayers in Kansas to claim a credit for expenditures incurred to make existing property accessible to individuals with disabilities. The property must be located in Kansas and either used in a trade or business, held for the production of income, or be a personal dwelling. The credit is claimed in the taxable year when the modifications are completed.

Eligibility Requirements

  • The modifications must comply with Title I and Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, as well as applicable regulations under 28 C.F.R. Part 36 and 29 C.F.R. 1630 et seq.
  • The credit applies only to existing buildings, facilities, or equipment — not new construction or additions, except for principal dwellings.
  • A "principal dwelling" is defined under K.S.A. 79-32,176 and K.S.A. 79-32.176a.

How to File Form K-37

  • Complete Schedule K-37 and attach it to your Kansas income tax return for the taxable year in which the eligible modifications are completed.
  • Enter the qualifying expenditures and complete all applicable sections of the schedule to calculate the allowable credit.
  • Retain records and supporting documentation to substantiate the eligible expenditures and compliance with the applicable requirements.
